“I am very proud of our three captains for the 2013 season,” stated Kern. “Each of these student- athletes is a great student, a terrific player, and engaged in the Asheville community.”

The Bulldogs report to practice in early August. They’ll play an exhibition game at Davidson on Aug. 17 and open the season at UNC Greensboro on Aug. 30. Asheville’s first home match at Greenwood Field comes against Brevard on Sunday, Sept. 1.
